Tonight’s bombshell discovery was the all-original(paint, engine and interior) 1950 Packard Standard Eight with only 40,600 original miles on the odometer. It’s owned by David now, but it would have been someone’s luxury vehicle 72 years ago. Packard’s slogan was – “Ask the man who owns one.” Political correctness hadn’t yet been invented.
It was great bringing my classic car to the A & W Glendeer cruise night on June 3, 2022. I always enjoy meeting new like minded people and speaking to owners of classic cars and hearing the passion of repairs, maintenance and care of these classics etc. as well the stories behind how they obtained these precious gems. I am also glad people like Bob spread the passion and information that he provides pictures of the events as well posts the classic car show yearly calendar. Thank you Bob.
David, I enjoyed seeing your all-original car and it was a pleasure to meet you. I’m looking forward to seeing you at Wild Wednesday.
